Your Go-To List for the Best Lake Days Around Nevada County

We’re so excited to be kicking off another season at Gold Country Rec Rentals. If you’ve been waiting for lake days to come back… same!

One of the questions we get all the time is: “Where should we go?”

And honestly, we get it. There are so many good spots around here, but if you don’t know the area, it’s hard to know where to start. So we made it simple.

We Put Our Favorite Spots in One Place

We created a few Google Maps lists with the places we actually love and recommend.

Not the overly complicated, over-researched kind — just solid, go-to spots for a really good day outside.

Inside the lists, you’ll find:

• lakes we love for paddle boarding and kayaking

• easy, relaxed lake day locations

• dog-friendly spots (because they should get to come too)

These are the places we send our friends.

Save them, use them, and keep them handy for those “let’s just go to the lake” kind of days.

We’ve Got the Gear Covered

Once you’ve picked your spot, the rest is easy.

We offer high-quality inflatable kayaks and paddle boards that are super easy to transport and perfect for lakes like Scotts Flat, Rollins, Bullards Bar, and beyond.

No complicated setup. No overthinking it. Just grab your gear and go!
